It sounds like you're dealing with excessive gas, which can indeed be quite uncomfortable. From an Ayurvedic perspective, this could be linked to vata imbalance, especially if it's accompanied by bloating, or other digestive troubles. Let's take a closer look at some practical steps you can take to help manage this issue.

First, align your diet to support your digestive 'agni' or fire, which in Ayurveda is crucial for digestion. It's important that your meals are not only balanced but also easy to digest. Try to include warming spices such as cumin, fennel, ginger, and coriander in your cooking, as they can help ignite the digestive fire and reduce gas formation.

Avoid foods that increase vata like dry or cold items, too much raw salads or beans and lentils that are hard to digest. Make sure your fruits and vegetables are cooked rather than raw—this is easier for your digestive system. Along those lines, try to limit your intake of gas-forming foods like broccoli, cauliflower, and onions.

Regular meal times are also important; irregular eating times can disrupt digestion, adding to the problem. Aim to eat your meals at the same time each day and avoid overeating.

Try incorporating a short walk after meals, 10-15 minutes of leisurely stroll can work wonders on your digestion, rather than sitting or lying down immediately after eating.

For lifestyle, ensure that you're managing stress effectively, as it can significantly impact digestion. Practices like meditation, yoga or pranayama can help in calming the mind and balancing vata dosha. Bhastrika and Nadi Shodhana are especially beneficial here.

If this doesn't help, or if symptoms persist or worsen, connect with a local practitioner for personalized advice. They can tailor remedies that suit your exact body constitution and present condition. Remember, the journey to health is as much about what we eat as how we live!
